411 Rescue the Peris.h.i.+ng. P.M.

_Seeking the Lost._

Rescue the peris.h.i.+ng, Care for the dying, s.n.a.t.c.h them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep o'er the erring one, Lift up the fallen, Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save.

Cho.--Rescue the peris.h.i.+ng, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.

2 Tho' they are slighting him, Still he is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive.

Plead with them earnestly, Plead with them gently, He will forgive if they only believe.

3 Down in the human heart, Crushed by the tempter, Feelings lie buried which grace can restore.

Touched by a loving heart, Wakened by kindness, Cords that were broken will vibrate once more.

4 Rescue the peris.h.i.+ng, Duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide.

Back to the narrow way Patiently win them; Tell the poor wand'rer a Savior has died.

412 While the Days Are Going By. P.M.

_Daily Opportunity._

There are lonely hearts to cherish, While the days are going by; There are weary souls who perish, While the days are going by; If a smile we can renew, As our journey we pursue, Oh, the good we all may do, While the days are going by.

Ref.--Going by, going by, Going by, going by, Oh, the good we all may do, While the days are going by.

2 There's no time for idle scorning, While the days are going by; Let your face be like the morning, While the days are going by; Oh, the world is full of sighs, Full of sad and weeping eyes; Help your fallen brother rise, While the days are going by.

3 All the loving links that bind us, While the days are going by; One by one we leave behind us, While the days are going by; But the seeds of good we sow Both in shade and s.h.i.+ne will grow, And will keep our hearts aglow, While the days are going by.

George Cooper.

413 I Want to Be a Worker. P.M.

_Delight in G.o.d's Work._

I want to be a worker for the Lord, I want to love and trust his holy word; I want to sing and pray, and be busy ev'ry day In the vineyard of the Lord.

Cho.--I will work, I will pray, In the vineyard, in the vineyard of the Lord; I will work, I will pray, I will labor ev'ry day In the vineyard of the Lord.

2 I want to be a worker ev'ry day, I want to lead the erring in the way That leads to heav'n above, where all is peace and love, In the kingdom of the Lord.

3 I want to be a worker strong and brave, I want to trust in Jesus' power to save; All who will truly come, shall find a happy home In the kingdom of the Lord.

4 I want to be a worker; help me, Lord, To lead the lost and erring to thy word That points to joys on high, where pleasures never die, In the kingdom of the Lord.
